About this care
BSO De Parel is located inside the Evangelical primary school De Parel at Zuiderkruis 4 in Amersfoort. We provide after-school care for up to 22 children in a large, cozy and multifunctional space right in the heart of the school. Our team of pedagogical staff is ready to welcome children every Monday, Tuesday and Thursday afternoon from 2:00 PM until 6:30 PM at the latest. During eight of the twelve holiday weeks, we are open full days from 8:15 AM to 6:30 PM.
We believe in creating a continuous line between school and after-school care. Therefore, we align our activities and approach with the identity and vision of De Parel primary school. Children can enjoy free play, relax, do crafts in our creative corner, read quietly in our reading nook, or do their homework. Our space has a homely atmosphere where every child feels safe and at home.
The beautiful, natural outdoor area of the school invites children to run, climb, play sports and let off steam. We regularly use this outdoor space and also organize extra activities such as sports clinics, creative workshops with artists, or fun baking afternoons. During school holidays, we arrange additional outings and themed days.
For parents, we offer three contract options: a school weeks contract (40 weeks), a holiday contract (8 weeks) or a total contract (48 weeks). Registration is easy via www.koalah.nl. BSO De Parel is part of Stichting KOALAH and is registered in the National Childcare Register, allowing parents to apply for childcare allowance.Read more
